SuiteTip: Avoid Invalid Expression Error by Using the Correct Formula Field Type

edited Jun 2, 2025 2:51PM in Tips & Best Practices

Welcome back to SuiteTip! In this article, we’ll dive into a fundamental aspect of NetSuite Saved Searches that’s often overlooked: Formula Field Types. 

 

Available Formula Field Types 

When creating Saved Searches, you have several formula types to choose from for your results: 

  • Formula (Currency) 
  • Formula (Date)* 
  • Formula (Date/Time) 
  • Formula (HTML) 
  • Formula (Numeric)* 
  • Formula (Percent) 
  • Formula (Text)* 

Note: The types marked with an asterisk (*) can also be used in Saved Search Criteria.* 

 

Common Pitfall: "ERROR: Invalid Expression" 

One of the frequent errors users encounter when working with Formula Fields is the “ERROR: Invalid Expression.” This is usually due to selecting the incorrect Formula Field type. 

Howdy, Stranger!
